Because Mendelssohn was the champion of Bach's music. And because he is an indisputable beast and my most favoritest composer now. Beethoven has become number 2.

And no.. I'm not going to cite his Violin Concerto in E minor as my reason. Rather, his 3rd, 4th and 5th symphonies along with his newly discovered Piano Concerto in E minor and his F minor string quartet are the main reasons.

Oh yeah.. and I am completely addicted to Schumann's Violin Concerto (which receives so little attention compared to its beauty).
